Qdoba Healthy Options?
I am going to lunch w/ a friend this week at Qdoba. I've been trying to research healthy meals options on both the Internet & MFP but am not coming up with much. It seems a lot is a "create your own" option. Can anyone recommend some low-cal healthy meals there please? I'm trying to stay around 300 calories. Thanks!

Vacation Weight Not Coming Off. What's happening?
I am so frustrated I could cry. Last month, I put on 10 lbs. over an 11-day vacation. I didn't even see how that was possible. I knew I'd have some gain from the eating out 3x/day and no exercise, but not that much. Everyone assured me it was mostly water retention and would come off within a week or two. Once my vacation…

Not Feeling Full

I consume between 1500-1700 calories during the week and a little more (probably closer to 2000) over the weekend. No matter what I do however I don't feel…

Guilt About Not Exercising (In Maintenance)
During my weight loss journey, I was dedicated about working out 5x a week; Monday - Friday with weekends off to spend with my family. Now that I am in maintenance, I would like to dial it back a bit but cannot seem to shake the guilt about skipping even 1 workout. I will wakeup and tell myself that I'm going to give…

Maintenance Exercise - How much?
I am only 2 lbs. away from my final weight loss goal and am starting my maintenance plan. I currently exercise for at least 1 hr. a day 5x a week; 3 days of cardio and 2 days of strength training. Should I continue exercising this much during maintenance or dial it back to only 3-4 days? Obviously, I don't want to begin…

Need More Friends
I am losing my dedication and motivation for continuing my weight loss journey. I've lost 50 lbs. and only have a few lbs. left to go, but am getting tired (both emotionally and physically). I thought maybe having a few more friends might help motivate me.

Taking a Break?
I've been dieting since July 2010, which was 2 months after I gave birth to my son. I started at out 175 lbs. I have lost about 50 lbs. since then (I fluctuate between 125-130 lbs.). I get up @ 4:30am and am @ the gym by 5am. I do this 5x/week. My caloric intake is usually between 1200-1500, with it going up to about 2000…
